Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate (Boron 20%)
Rs. 220.00
Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate is a micronutrient that is required for the growth and development of healthy plants as well as in agriculture. Boron's role in plant productivity has been proven since the early 1920s. In agriculture, Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate is used as a micronutrient in fertilisers in low quantities.
Molecular Formulae- Na2B8O13·4H2O
Alternative Names- Aquabor / Boron sodium oxide, Sodium Octaborate, Tim-bor insecticide, Polybor
BENEFITS AND USES-
- Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate promotes seed germination, causes plants to grow bushier, and produces more blooms.
- It helps in the correction and prevention of Boron shortages, stunted development, and yield reduction.
- It encourages the synthesis of chlorophyll.
- It aids in the control of plant hormone levels for growth and reproduction.
- Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate can be easily combined with other fertilisers.
HOW IT WORKS-
- It works by providing crops with essential nutrients like Boron.
- Boron is necessary for plant development, growth, crop-production, and seed development by assisting with water and nutrient transport in plants.
TIME OF APPLICATION-
- It can be used all throughout the year.
- It should be used at least once a month to avoid the leaves turning yellow and curling on your plants.
RECOMMENDED USAGE-
- For spraying, the recommended usage is 5% weight by volume.
- For solid application, use 5-8 kg/acre.
HOW TO USE-
- Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate is applied directly to the soil in solid form and dissolved under humid circumstances as it is absorbed by the plants' roots.
- Alternatively, it can be sprayed on the foliage because certain plants absorb more through their leaves.
